Over the same period, Instagram followers increased on average by 76% and Facebook likes rose by an average of 113%.

Signet Jewelers brands H. Samuel and Ernest Jones take the first two spots in the top 10 retailers for Twitter followers, but come only eighth and tenth respectively in the rankings for Instagram followers.

Pre-owned watch specialist Watchfinder is the number one business on Instagram, with trading platform Chrono24 in second place.

Chrono24 also rides high in the Facebook chart, beaten to second place only by Watchshop, the UK’s biggest online-only retailer.
